Gatsby benchmark 4: Linking curriculum learning to careers

Linking careers to the curriculum can be achieved in a number of ways, be it through tailored lesson plans, careers activities or classroom conversations. The posters below can be used in specific lessons to start a conversation around how individual subjects link to different job sectors and career paths.

It is also important to ensure as a Careers Leader you are aware of all of the careers related activity that takes place in individual subjects and that this information is tracked. The below form can be sent out to all department leads in order to gather a complete picture and evidence of all careers in the curriculum activities.
